TROUBLED TV’s Gail Porter stripped her house of mirrors to avoid seeing herself.

In an interview days before her recent alleged suicide bid, the former pin-up admits she often feels “fat and useless”.

Gail, 40, who has lost all her hair twice, tells July’s Top Sante magazine: “Feeling sorry for myself isn’t healthy, so I got rid of the mirrors. I’m fine with my alopecia, but that doesn’t mean I want to be reminded of it.”

She added she wants to kick depression, drink and drugs, for daughter Honey, eight.

Gail said: “Every minute is about her. Snuggling up to her makes a big difference.”
